| Image Title: Tree of Life with Amber Dimensions: 12"x12", 2004 Medium: Raku fired ceramic mounted on canvas painted in acrylic with text The "tree of life" symbol reminds me that many of life's blessings are there for the picking. But sometimes we are absorbed in other things and don't see them. We allow negativity to swallow our days and haunt our nights, robbing us of what is good in everyday life. It takes real effort to recognize the miracles in our midst. Working in clay brings me closer to the earth. I love its tactile nature and
the range of possibilities it offers. My sculptures are deliberately simple and
fired in a method that values spontaneity. As amber is the sap of ancient trees, I wired this piece
with it to symbolize The text on the canvas behind the tree is automatic writing, Regina Coupar Studio |
